Will there be a difference? Do you actually need 8gb? I play mostly world of tanks, dota 2.

MS-7507 It supports a bunch of Wolfdale processors like E8400, but E3300 is not on the list. Would it work anyways?

Is it possible? How do I know if my CPU or mobo support overclocking? Will low end cpus and mobos likely support it?

And which one of the cheap boards would you recommend? Budget is about 40-50€ so around 50-70 usd

I bought an alpine 11 pro rev.2 and it does not fit on the motherboard because the northbridge is in the way, yes I tried rotating it. On one hand the 4pin is in the way, on the other the northbridge. How can they design two components that are supposed to, but do not fit together? There was...

Both are seagates: ST3250310AS ST3250620AS It seems to me the first one makes less noise and is faster, but theyre supposed to be near identical. Also the second one is twice as "fat" physically as the first one, which gioves me the idea it uses older technology or 2 platters instead of 1...

I bought a GTX460 768mb second hand and it seems the cooling on memory chips is inadequate. If I dont keep the case side open then there are artifacts in games in the form of greenish-purple patches. How would you act if you bought a new videocard and it had the same problem? Should I charge...

nvm

There are some which make one 6pin PCIE connector from 2 4/3x molex connectors and some which seem to make it from a single 4x molex. Whats the difference and how do i know which one I need to use?

Thanks. It is only 25€ more. I guess I will aim for that.

460gtx 768mb OC is notably better or not? I want to play at 1600x900, my other specs is 4gb ddr2, e3300@3.4ghz.
